41. Getting a Tan p.271

Both my brother and I are outgoing people. He as well as I likes being in the sun. It goes without saying, therefore, that we spend a lot of our free time at the beach. We go there to relax as well as to keep fit. To be frank, though, he no less than I enjoys looking at the beautiful scenery around the beach.

However, if you are anything like us, we have a piece of advice for you. Don't forget to rub a good amount of sunscreen lotion1 all over your body. Not only does it protect you from getting skin cancer, but it also helps to keep you nicely tanned. Both my brother and I forgot to do that and now we look like Afro-Americans rather than Chinese.
